Beautiful she is, angel in the air,

Wings of white, spread far,

Dressed in many wonderful colors,

Long flowing hair.

Angel of color, where is it that you

Come from, tell me where,

Is it from somewhere out there,

Someplace in heaven?

You are the beautiful poinsettia

Angel, so magical you seem,

Are you a dream, only in winter

You appear to be imagined.

Colors of red, white, yellow,

And others are so alive at this

Time,

Angel of color, Poinsettia angel,

Spirit of the season are you.
